This chapter describes how to use the PMDF-X400 configuration utility. The configuration produced by this utility provides support for interchanging messages with a single remote X.400 MTA. If support for multiple MTAs is required you should first configure and test PMDF-X400 with a single MTA. The steps required to add support for additional MTAs are described in the PMDF System Manager's Guide.

A history of the configuration run is saved in the file x400_configure.history in the PMDF table directory when you run the PMDF CONFIGURE X400 utility. When you run PMDF CONFIGURE X400 again, you will be prompted as to whether the answers from the history file should be used as default answers. The history file should not be deleted casually, as it could save you from typing the same answers over again, and could prove useful to technical support should you encounter problems.
